i almost forgot about this photo. i took this when @k1w1, @northy and i went on a photo trek in the beginning of november in hamilton. this was taken at bayfront park, our third stop that day. see one of @northy's shots of the place: http://365project.org/northy/365/2013-11-04
i noticed the 'disc' floating in the sky. i knew right away what caused it as i forgot to take the cpl filter off the lens so i re-shot without it and there was no such flare. it was kind of eerie because the flare looked like a half disc, you know, like a UFO.
thank you for your kind visits and comments; know that they are so much appreciated.
@northy - if i feel better tonight, i will stalk the marina at ashbridges and take starburst photos. i might be stiff frozen dead by tomorrow morning, but goddarnit i'm going to have a starbust photo. :-)
